Configuration Tab
The configuration tab’s main purpose is to specify the slave address for successful communication with
the DS125DF1610EVM. The default address is hex 0x30 as shown in
Figure 4
. If the ADDR0 (GPIO0) or
ADDR1 (GPIO1) jumper settings are altered, the SMBus address will need to be changed. Refer to the
datasheet for additional information.

After selecting the proper slave address, the board can be connected by clicking the apply button. If the
USB2ANY details drop down box does not show any values, then the board is not correctly connected to
your computer.
